4Cyte Canine Joint Support For Dogs

4CYTE™ for Dogs is safe to take long-term, and is used to:

• Address symptoms such as stiffness and lack of willingness to jump, run or play.
• Complement prescription joint pain treatments.
• Support healing after a joint injury or operation.
• Improve and maintain healthy joints at any stage of life.
• Boost the body’s ability to meet performance and recuperation demands in athletic and working dogs.
• Target the cause, not just the symptoms.

In high-risk large and giant breeds, 4CYTE™ for Dogs may also be used as a protective and preventative measure against joint damage.

The Science:

4CYTE™ for Dogs has undergone both laboratory and clinical studies to prove its safety and effectiveness.

A canine clinical study was completed at the University of Melbourne and presented at the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine. The study demonstrated that 4CYTE™ was comparable to the control – a recognised prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) – in the relief of arthritic symptoms. Subjects showed a significant improvement at 14 days and continued improvement to 28 days, unlike the NSAID control which did not show continued improvement after 14 days.

Laboratory studies also demonstrated the positive synergistic effect of the ingredients in 4CYTE™ for targeting the chemicals in the body that diminish joint function.

A 100g bag of 4CYTE™ for Dogs lasts around 120 days on a maintenance dose for a dog weighing between 11 and 20kgs.

DOSE RATES: 1 scoop = 0.4g

Loading Dose - applied for the first 4 weeks of use.
1-5kg = 1 scoop per day
6-10kg = 2 scoops per day
11-20kg = 4 scoops per day
21-30kg = 6 scoops per day
31kg+ = 8 scoops per day

Maintenance Dose - given after the first 4 weeks of giving the loading Dose
1-5kg = 1/2 a scoop per day
6-10kg = 1 scoop per day
11-20kg = 2 scoops per day
21-30kg = 3 scoops per day
31kg+ = 4 scoops per day

Epiitalis

New Zealand Green-Lipped Mussel
Marine Cartilage

4CYTE™ Canine is a unique blend of Epiitalis®, New Zealand Green Lipped Mussel (Perna Canaliculas), Abalone (Haliotis Iris) and Marine cartilage. The blend of key compounds obtains maximum effectiveness. In vitro studies show the combination is more potent than each ingredient on its own. These active ingredients are of a human grade, blended to a specific ratio and manufactured to meet a strict pharmaceutical standard.

4CYTE™ Canine targets four key areas:
Supports the natural mechanism to maintain health cartilage and joints.
Assists to maintain normal joint function
Promotes – contains a range of compounds known to be necessary for promoting healthy joints
Potential to assist with recovery times after excessive exercise and reduce the symptoms of resulting aches and pains.

4CYTE™ Canine can be utilised as an advanced joint support supplement.  • Pre and Post-operative situations for • Athletic dogs at risk of developing reduced joint function. • Dogs with reduced mobility/flexibility • Older dogs

Yes 4CYTE™ Canine is a Veterinary Only product. This product provides nutritional compounds and needs to be utilised in appropriate cases where genuine benefit can be achieved.  It is important that Veterinarians who understand your pets medical history and its symptoms make the correct diagnosis and treatment recommendation.

No specific studies have been conducted during pregnancy, therefore it is not recommended.  Although your veterinarian can make a final decision in this regard.

4CYTE™ Canine contains the full complement of the naturally forming glycosaminoglycan’s (including Glucosamine, Chondroitin, Keratin, Dermatan and Heparin) necessary for the health of the synovial fluid and cartilage matrix. Our in-vivo and in-vitro research has demonstrated significant bioavailability and efficacy at the stimulation of GAG’s production, with GAG levels a key objective measure of these peer reviewed and published papers.

All of our marine derived raw materials are by-products sourced from non-endangered species, harvested on a CITES certified under a strict quota basis and are by-products from harvested or certified aqua-farming operations. . More specifically the marine cartilage utilised in 4CYTE™ is from the fish backbone, which is a by-product of fish harvested for human consumption and come predominantly from Australian and New Zealand waters harvested under strict Governmental quota systems. The cartilage used is certified to not come from species listed in the Convention of International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). We apply a very strict quality control process to our raw materials acquisition to ensure all ethical procedures and guidelines are applied and met. All product is premium “human grade” quality.

4CYTE™ Canine has undergone significant in-vivo and in-vitro research which has demonstrated that the active ingredients are effective following simulated digestion and ultrafiltration (“absorption”) and that the product does reach the joints following oral administration. In-vitro studies 4CYTE™ Canine were subjected to a simulated digestion model and ultrafiltration process, thus mimicking the effects of natural digestion and absorption. Objective measures were then applied measuring levels of degradative enzymes, Glycosaminoglycan’s, Nitric Oxide and Chondrocyte numbers.
